I’m a fan of Harry Gregson-Williams’ film music, and I spent last summer renting movies by him, Hans Zimmer and Bernard Hermann. Gregson-Williams has an interesting way of weaving warm, orchestral pads with robotic, mechanical grooves.
As an exercise I started putting together a song ala Gregson-Williams, but I didn’t get very far with it. I’m going to work on it again and see where it goes. Listen to a clip of what I have so far. The drum loop definitely needs to be replaced.
